1. 1. Evaluation of Woodmer/plastic composites

   University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

   Author : Leon Ahlström; [2023]
   Keywords : Extrusion; Woodmer; Flame test; Tensile test; Composites; Extrudering; Woodmer; Flamtest; Dragtest; Kompositer;

   Abstract : Plast ger otroliga möjligheter i form av stor variation för materialanvändning. Tyvärr sker det dock på bekostnad av miljön då de ackumuleras i naturen. En kompromiss mellan hållbarhet och fortsatt plastanvändning skulle kunna vara att använda biomassa som fyllnadsmaterial i plastkompositer istället för plast. READ MORE

3. 2. End-of-life wind blade recycling through thermal process

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Kerstin Benz; [2023]
   Keywords : Wind Turbine Blades; Recycling; Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic; Molten Salt Pyrolysis;

   Abstract : Renewable energy production with wind turbines has been rising in the last 30 years and it is a crucial technology, which is necessary for the energy transition. As sustainable as the energy production of wind turbines is, the waste management of the blade material is not. Most of the blades end up on a landfill or get incinerated. READ MORE

   Keywords : dispersion coating; paper products; pigment; sustainable development; circular economy; Dispersionsbarriär; pappersprodukter; pigment; hållbar utveckling; cirkulär ekonomi;

   Abstract : Att minska plastavfall och uppmuntra återvinning har fått hög prioritet i många affärsverksamheter och olika typer av regleringar implementeras för att minska den negativa påverkan av plastanvändningen. Papper och kartong består i huvudsak av cellulosa som har många egenskaper som är essentiella för en hållbar ekonomi (t.ex. READ MORE

5. 4. Emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate with renewable raw materials as protective colloids

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

   Author : Hanna Lange; [2011]
   Keywords : Poly vinyl alcohol PVA ; Hydroxyethyl cellulose HEC ; Emulsion polymerization; Protective colloid; Starch;

   Abstract : Emulsion polymerizations of vinyl acetate (VAc) were performed by fully or partially replacing poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with renewable materials as protective colloids or by adding renewable materials, as additives or fillers, to the emulsions during or after polymerization. The purpose of the study was to increase the amount of renewable materials in the emulsion. READ MORE

6. 5. Starch and Protein based Wood Adhesives

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

   Author : Lidija Glavas; [2011]
   Keywords : wood adhesive; starch; protein; polymer; renewable filler;

   Abstract : Different native starches, modified starches and plant proteins were evaluated as wood adhesives. They were combined with different synthetic polymers in order to achieve improved adhesive properties. The study was divided into two parts: development of starch based adhesive formulations and evaluation of an existing protein based adhesive. READ MORE
